RFC PATCH 1/1 devicetree: Fix buffer overflow on setting device node name

Fix bug where temporary buffer for sprintf() was not large enough when setting a device tree node name.

---

Hi Jeremy. Here's the fix I promised. With this change your current tree works beautifully. I've pushed out the kernel that works with this QEMU branch to my Linux kernel git tree:

git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6 test-devicetree

Cheers,
g.
